Laura Melinda Ames Brown, daughter of Belle Chambless was an accomplished business woman, managing rental properties with her husband and after his death. Wade Hampton Brown, her husband, had been a railroad engineer based in Fort Worth before his retirement. Laura also knitted and crocheted beautiful items. This was in spite of one hand being permanently "frozen" in a fist from an accident when she was a baby. She fell and burned her hand in the fireplace. Probably from lack of good medical care; her hand healed closed in a fist and remained that way all her life. She lived healthily most of her life until after more than 100 years of age. I don't know her birth date.
